Fire Stick

Never go camping, hiking in the back country without a couple of these fires sticks in your kit. Sometimes it is just nice to be able to start a quick campfire without scratching around to find dry kindling. Reliable and have never been let down when starting a fire to warm up or cook. I break a stick up into 4 or so pieces and only use what I need to make a fire. One stick can be used to start many campfires. I also use these with the True plasma lighter. Good combo to utilize in wet windy environments when you need to get a fire started

i always keep these in the camping bin - they are easy to use, light quickly and burn well - i've never had to retry starting a fire with these - just break off a small chunk and get your fire teepee going! :)

Gets the job done

They always get the bbq going!

Excellent burn time and ignite ability.

The media could not be loaded. I stink at starting fires with just about every type of fire sparker I've used, and even with matches or a lighter it can take me a few tries to get a camp fire going. Because of that, I see these as a kind of insurance policy guaranteeing I can get the fire going, keep it going until my teepee catches, and then light a fire if I'm ever in an emergency situation.And the cool thing about these is that you don't need to carry the whole pack with you or anything like that. One stick can start several fires if broken up. Pieces can even be used, then pulled out of the fire before they burn down -- rubbed out in the dirt, and then reused for another fire. So one stick could probably get you three three or four days of backpacking.Yes, it's true that there are ways to make this kind of thing. And yes it's true that other things -- such as fine steel wool -- make for good fire starters. But I find magnesium sticks a big pain to scrape and work with. These fire sticks just take a match and they're burning enough to get your tinder going. And I think that's awesome.I've placed 1/3 of a stick in all of my emergency fire-starting kits (along with matches, lighter, fire steel, and various forms of micro-tinder), just as that insurance policy, guaranteeing I'll have flame when I really need it..................This product was NOT given to me as part of any promotion. I bought it after doing some comparison shopping and this review is entirely the result of my own opinions and use of the product.

We have used these for years to start campfires. They work great. Never go camping without them.

These fire sticks were great camping last weekend. I also received them exactly as promised with next day delivery which was helpful. They guaranteed my fire would get started ASAP and with a late arrival to camp a perfect way to start off the camping trip - knowing that I wouldn't have an issue getting my fire started and keeping it going. I have not yet used them in wet weather, but they were good with getting a fire started with damp (morning mist) wood. Best feature: size and won't fall apart too easily. Easy to carry camping, small and powerful.
